If you have not already done so, please fill out the volunteer background check (on the Cascade Ridge PTSA website under forms) and send it in to the office or return it to your child's teacher. Due to space limitations in the lunchroom, we are asking that all special visitors sign-in at the table in front of the office and then join your special student outside for recess. Please note: lunch will no longer be available for purchase in the Cafe. If you wish to eat with your student please bring your lunch.

This year’s Reflections Art Contest asks you to put your creative brain to work! Does your student like to draw, paint, take photos, write, compose music, dance, or make videos? The annual Reflections Art Contest has started and we are looking for entries to represent Cascade Ridge at the district level (and maybe even the state or national level!).
The theme this year is “The Magic of a Moment” and all students are invited to enter art that represents this theme. Entry forms will be available at Cascade Ridge soon and can also be downloaded at www.wastatePTA.org. Each category has specific rules & guidelines for entries so please review the rules applicable for the category your student is entering. You can find all of this information and more about the 2012 Reflections Art Contest at: http://www.issaquahptsa.org/programs/reflections
More information about submission deadlines will be coming in the next few weeks. Questions? Contact Tamra Kaufman at: tamra_kaufman@hotmail.com

You will receive more information as necessary through your class room coordinators. The policies are as follows:
